Shocking Solution 2

Overview

Shocking Solution      Shocking Solution is an innovation class project based upon the synthesis of rubies utilizing water based fuel. In order to create the intense heat required to crystalize the almina, most methods utilize plasma welders. There are two problems with this aproach, on demand electricity, and the cost of the equipment.      Water based fuel solves these problems, costing around 3000 - 4000 times less expensive, only requiring 50 watts of energy. Once running, my prototype was able to successfully create true ruby, all in under $250 Canadian. The ability to create ruby on such a low budget is definetely worth while. Mining components, blades, abrasives, watch components, jewlry, and much more all have potential for ruby integration.
